faces. 1t was evident Hermann
doom was sealed.
He was certain of a few hours res,
pite, but once the sun went down those
men would surely gathered around
the prison, the doors be burst open,
and within few minutes the victim
body would dangle from the limb of a
tree, while his soul winged its flight
Judge and constable rushed to the
prison. Hello" he shouted at the
top OF his voice. "I want to speak to
all of you"
The fast increasing crowd gathered
near. Then the Judge ordered the
constable to tell the story.
"Duck Buzzard jugged-hurrah -
shouted the crowd. Lets go for him,
boysr'
Hermann was liberated there and
then without waiting for legal forms.
Il will fetch your wife; wait at my
house for her" said the Judge, kindly.
And here occurs the strange part
OF the story. Why or how it was the
narrator cannot explain, but Hermann
absolutely refused to see the woman.
He went to the railroad station and
sat IN a dark corner until train came
along.
Nearly two years passed. About
month ago he met his wife accidental
to the greater Judge of all. It had
occurred so often before that every
one knew what the departure of the
"vigllantes" meant for the prisoner.
Probably the latter guessed it himself,
but If so his looks did not betray the
fact. He was apparently cool and
self-possessed-certainly neither dazed
nor frightened.
He was led back to the prison while
the Judge went through the form of
preparing an indictment. No one
knew better than the Judge himself
that this was farce.
The sun was beginning to sink below
the Western prairies, when a man
rushed into the judges residence in
state of wild excitement. 1t was the
constable who had arrested Hermann,
For heavens sake, Judge" he ex-
claimed, come with me to the prison
derer has been arrested-one of the
Buzzard gang, whom we have been
hunting for months. Chapman's money
and watch have been found on him"
ly in Chicago. Old acquaintance was
renewed and the old love reasserted
itself. The marriage license and the
marriage followed in due course.
That saved troublesome explanations.
And if Hermann had any supersti-
tious ideas that the fates had decreed
against his union to the one woman
the world had for him they are all
gone.

A PLEASANT DAY.
rHE ANNUAL PICNIC OF THE GERMAN
PIONEER SOCIETY,
Out at the Park, Ysstsrday-A Large Attendance
Of Ladies and Gsnlsmsn-What Was
Said and Done

The annual picnic Of the German Pioneer
Society occurred at the Park yesterday
and was largely attended by the members
of the organization and their friends. The
Pioneer Society is now about forty years
old, but the fight of years seems to have
no effect upon the members, and yesterday
even the oldest took keen delight in par
ticipating in the enjoyments of the day.
Many of the members and their families
went out via the Elm Grove road early In
the morning, but the great majority did
not leave the city until after noon. About
three o'clock the music of the Opera House
Rand called the members of the Society
together on the top of the mound, when
thew were called to order by Presi-
dent c. E. Stifel, who delivered neat adj
dress, during which he congratulated the
members upon being present, and eulo-
gized the Society over which he has SO
lone and ably presided. He was succeeded
nv Rev. William Ulfert, who delivered an
orasion in his usual elegant style, AWAKEN
ing much enthusiasm.
Mrs. Mena Neuer was next lntro-
dueed to the assemblage. Inc laoy au-
dressed herself particularly to the lemalr
norton of the audience, taking lot her
Theme the duties of womanhood, and now
they should be performed. Mrs. Neuel
created fine impression, ana tnose WV
heard her address were warm In ner praise.
Mr.. Peter ZOeckler, of Fulton, next
read an original poem, which was wen re-
eeiyed. after which Secretary Charles
Behler and Treasurer Hoffman made snor'
speeches. -, 5 .ho
ensuing two hours was spent IN dancing,
promenading under the trees, partaKing OF
| luncheon. or in conversation. ABOUT
O'Clock the older members OF the society:
headed by the band, marched 10
the fountain, where the group
was photographed by Brown aiVer
which procession was lOLmeu'
which marched to the dancing pavilion
when President Stifel once more MADE a
few remarks. The address was succeeoeu
by dancing, after which the members als-
persed for supper. In the evening hre
works formed leading feature OF the pro-
gramme. .- s;,,,,
The day as a whole was an exceedingly
ENJOYABLE one, and all present had a
spIendid time. In strOlling through tne
Park the REGISTER noticed dozens oil
prominent citizens-merchants, ma1ulac'
turers, and workingmen--with their Iami-
lies, all bent at having few hours relaxa-
ton from business and care. The society
came in on the evening train, the members
being tired but happy.

There are a crowd of youngsters who
operate on Chapline street, between Twen-
ty-second and Twenty-sixth streets, and
make it unpleasant for people who drive
along that thorOughfare. They place
matches along on the street car track,
and when the wheels pass over them the
noise frightens the horses, and many close
escapes have been Ciade from serious acct
dents. They have other methods of max
ing it Unpleasant for people who drive
alcig that street, and there should be
some way to put stop to the nuisance.
If several of these kids were arrested and
fined possibly it would have some effect.
